ENW050 Stranger Danger Workshop (Demaree Clay) (04/24/2026)

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Instructors:	Demaree Clay
Assistants:	Zoe Floyd and Stacey Ware
Day/Time:	Friday, 4/24/2026 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM (1 session at 120 minutes/session)
Capacity:	10 handler/dog pairs

Semester: 2026-S2

Track: Enrichment

Type: Workshop

This three tiered approach to anxiety is perfect for the dog who doesn't like to meet new people. We will go through creating a greeting response and building upon the expected outcome of that response so that you can build upon your success on your own. Bring super high value treats and be prepared to sit on the floor for a short period while you learn relaxing techniques.

Disclaimer: Dogs with a bite history are not eligible for this workshop.

ENS133 Behavior Clinic (Demaree Clay) (04/29/2026)

Wed, 29 Apr 2026 22:30:00 GMT

Training is fun, training changes your relationship with your dog and training changes your dog. But is training enough? Do you have behavioral concerns beyond the scope of obedience exercises? Come to this informative clinic, offered once a session to discuss relevant treatment plans to help shape your canine's behavior. Housetraining, Stealing Objects, Counter-Cruising, Excessive Barking, Door Greetings, Jumping up, Toys and Inappropriate Chewing, are just a few of the subjects on the table. This Clinic is purely a Q&A. Your questions will be answered by our Certified Master Trainer and animal behavior expert. Attendees are not required to stay for the entire clinic once their concern has been addressed. Come and go as you please. This Workshop is for humans only, but dogs may attend if they remain manageable during discussions. While we may discuss Reactivity, Human-directed Aggression and Dog-to-Dog Aggression, we regret that these dogs cannot attend the discussion.
